Jedi Mind Tricks and Two Sides to the Delusional Coin: On the one hand liberals embrace lies as truth, while on the other they reject truth as lies

The Louisiana governor and former presidential candidate took some
heat following last January’s Charlie Hebdo attack when he spoke about
Muslim no-go zones in Europe. No-go zones are Muslim enclaves,
completely separate from civil law and authority, run according to
street justice and Muslim tradition.

Jindal was quickly rebuked by political commentators and even the
mayor of London, Boris Johnson, who insisted that “no-go zones” are
fictional. “Jindal condemns imaginary no-go zones” wrote Steve Benen on
Rachel Maddow’s MaddowBlog. A Washington Post headline mused, “Bobby
Jindal Won’t Back Down on no-go Zones. Why?” Geez, I don’t know—because
he was right?

… Ten months later, after an even more horrific terror attack in Paris,
we learned that in fact some of the perpetrators had emerged from
exactly the no-go zones whose existence Jindal’s detractors had denied
in January. When investigators followed the terrorists’ trail to
Brussels, they raided homes in the Molenbeek neighborhood, which the New
York Times describes as “working class.” That’s Times-speak for
non-working class and, of course, Muslim. The Times tweeted: “Belgian
Minister Says Government Lacks Control Over Neighborhood Linked to
Terror Plots” That’s as good a definition as any for a “no-go zone.”
Days later, French police laid siege to an apartment in Saint Denis, a
heavily Muslim suburb of Paris known for its high crime and wide
availability of guns. Saint Denis is by all accounts a no-go zone.

But don’t worry—there’s no such thing as a no-go zone. Never has been, never will be.

This habit of denying the existence of very real threats seems to be a
distinguishing characteristic of the Left. Even more enigmatic is the
fact that they simultaneously believe in a lot of things
that happen to be pure fiction. Until recently I considered liberals’
primary malfeasance to be in stirring up hysteria through the
fabrication of incidents that never happened.

Rape hoaxes are a
favorite. These are the people who brought us the Rolling Stone rape
hoax—not to mention the Lena Dunham rape hoax, the Duke lacrosse team
rape hoax, the mattress girl rape hoax, and the Tawana Brawley rape
hoax. Liberals recently experienced a mass hallucination at the
University of Missouri, claiming that the KKK was roaming the campus.
Some went as far as to claim that the klansmen were receiving police
protection as they tossed bricks through dormitory windows. None of this
actually happened. Liberals stage hate crimes, invent appalling
statistics, and plant racist signs at Tea Party rallies. They subscribe
to all sorts of unproven and unprovable theories such as the “gay” gene.
They inhabit a world of utter fakeness—and that’s just the way they
like it.

This delusional coin of theirs has two sides. On the one hand liberals
embrace lies as truth, while on the other they reject truth as lies.

Nor is it enough to simply deny the existence of very real things; they
have to defame others, like Bobby Jindal, who refuse to play along. It
didn’t suffice to say that he was wrong about no-go zones in
Europe—which he wasn’t wrong, by the way—they had to accuse him of far
worse.

Be sure to read Benny Huang's list of "a few things that liberals refuse to allow to exist", from False Rape Accusers to Black-on-Black Crime through Islamic terrorism and
Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq:

Some eleven years after the invasion of Iraq, the New York Times
finally got around to publishing a story about the five thousand
chemical munitions discovered since 2003. Yet the myth of “no WMD”
persists to the present day. Even the author of the Times article, CJ
Chivers, tried to perpetuate the falsehood that the weapons don’t count because they were left over from the 1980s and were thus not the weapons
used to justify the war. He must have been expecting his readers not to
read UN Resolution 1441, which laid out in explicit detail the
rationale or the war. It essentially demanded that Saddam account for
all WMD known to be in its possession at the time of his 1991 surrender,
which would of course include 1980s weapons.

Benny Huang, who might also have mentioned that Fox News felt compelled to apologize to Paris after the mayor (pre-November 13) harshly criticized its report on the French capital's no-go zones, concludes:

Liberals are like Ben Kenobi employing Jedi mind tricks to convince
the rest of us that “These are not the drones you’re looking for.” With
a wave of the hand they can make people disbelieve their very eyes. How
a person can believe, despite all evidence to the contrary, that Matthew Shepard
was killed for his sexuality is truly astounding, though
not nearly as astounding as the idea that these people deny the very
existence of ex-gays! They’ve invented this thing called the War on
Women™, but vehemently deny that there’s any such thing as a war on
Christmas. They deny the existence of voter fraud, non-citizens on the
welfare rolls, and disease-carrying illegal aliens. How on earth could
one group of people be so out of touch with reality? That’s liberals for you.
